Fetoscopic Amniotic Band Release in a Case of Chorioamniotic Separation: An Innovative New Technique
American Journal of Perinatology Reports, 2016 Introduction Fetoscopic release of amniotic bands has proved its life- and limb-saving potential. Rupture of the amnion and separation of chorion from the amnion and uterine wall can however preclude the standard fetoscopic approach to release the ...
